What state's polling do you not believe? (10/1)

« on: October 01, 2008, 09:12:51 PM »

These are the states that have been seriously contested this election season. I threw out Wisconsin, Montana and Minnesota.

If you're an Obama fan, it's probably a little difficult to actually believe it's as good as it's looking for him right now. If you favor McCain, it may not be as bad as it looks. Which state won't live up to the hype and be a bit of a surprise on election day? Which state is closer or further apart then polling is telling us? If things continue on their present course, chances are not an individual one of these states will decide this thing, but it might give the parties an idea of what to look for (or perhaps where to start.)

Colorado, because it's slight Obama, not toss-up !

There was a poll there last week showing McCain with a slight lead. Also, Colorado hasn't moved as much in recent days as Ohio or Florida.

After seeing the most recent SUSA polls, I wish I put Minnesota on the list, now.
